Pricing & Underwriting London is coming fast, so we encourage you to reserve your space now! This invitation-only, half-day event brings together general insurance leaders and Guidewire experts to explore strategies for mastering pricing & underwriting disciplines in our rapidly-changing world.


The insurance market is entering a phase where dynamic high-volume and data-driven pricing, intensifying regulatory frameworks, and AI-enabled automation converge. During this first-of-its-kind Guidewire event, you’ll gain critical insights into:


Bringing The Next Generation Of Pricing Software: A New Insurance Ecosystem

Piotr Lebiedź, Pricing Manager at Guidewire, examines the challenges facing modern pricing teams and presents how end-to-end pricing platforms offer scalable solutions for a connected and future-ready approach to insurance pricing.


The Evolution Of Third Party Data: From Data Tsunami To Decision Velocity

Sean Halverson, Insurance Portfolio Advisor at Guidewire, discusses the shift in underwriting from a subjective "art" to a data-driven "science", and addresses how the major obstacles to optimising risk selection and pricing are evolving.


Flood Risk - Pricing Challenges, Trends, Future Outlook

Hear from Fathom, Flood Re, and Haskoning on this panel, which explores the growing challenges of pricing flood risk as events become more frequent, severe, and unpredictable.


Where Stats Meets ML: The Explainable Middle Ground

Karol Gawłowski, Chair - Actuarial Data Science at IFoA & Manager at EY, will explore how insurers can move from GLMs to boosted GLMs and from GAMs to Explainable Boosting Machines, offering insurers stronger, transparent ML while retaining familiar actuarial structure.
